My friend saw a man at Novena MRT ATM trying to get all the receipts out of the ATM bin.
i would honestly want to know, what in the world did the man use to get ALL the receipts out of the ATM bin
whoever that started this chain mail must have superb imagination. -
I also don't use receipts... The words will fade away in months...

Most important thing to break into yr account is yr PIN NUMBER.. Not acount number, the card ,name or whatever..
That is why credit card is more easier to counterfeit and abuse. Cos all it need is yr signature.

Just having the account number is hardly enough. I fail to see how any monkey can hack into my banking account just because he has my account number. If he has my PIN as well, then I would say that it's a security risk.
That said, it is still good to exercise reasonable caution. When it comes to things like photocopies of ICs or banking statements, the best idea is to shred them before disposal. There's no harm tearing up your banking receipts before discarding them.
So many online businesses have account numbers online... -.-"

This happened in Singapore ... BEWARE: TRUE STORY
Since all of us have ATM card(s), I would like to share this important news.
My friend saw a man at Novena MRT ATM trying to get all the receipts out of the ATM bin.
Please read the following message from a friend of mine, it's true.
Please be careful, it's not a joke.......
Be careful when u draw cash from ATM with receipt which complete with your account number.
Never, never throw the receipt in the public bin even if u must tear into small pieces before throwing it away.
Today, just got a call from my sister that she had lost all her cash from her account.
She threw the receipt into the bin provided at ATM recently. ?Luckily, she only has $633/= in her account.
Not much of suspicious when she was left with $11/- because she thought it was her petrol GIRO payment, however, that's not true.
She only got to know it when the petrol company, Mobil cut-off the petrol card's transaction when she realized something is wrong.
After checking with the bank, she was told that now there is this syndicate who will pick up the ATM receipt & with their IT expert, they are able to draw out your money.
The bank will not be able to trace where these people had drawn the money & how they do it, don't ask me, even the bank can't answer it.
They can only advise you to report the case to the police for investigation. ?My sister is the third victim in this month
DON'T THROW YOUR ATM RECEIPT AWAY...
SEND THIS TO All YOU KNOW
?Jeffry Low?I don't think the bank would say such things.
They would not commit themselves to anything.
Their first move is to check that you are not trying to defraud them.
